Nothing beats an evening at the only national park dedicated to the performing arts especially when the National Symphony Orchestra is filling the amphitheater with sound.

Picnic blanket? Check. W**e? Check. Live orchestral magic under the trees? Absolutely.

You can take the tour guide out of DC but you can’t keep the tour guide out of a Smithsonian!

The Heinz Heinz History Center is the Smithsonian’s home in Pittsburgh.

Our highlights were:

Mr Roger’s Neighborhood 🚎
A 160 year old jar of pickles 🥒
And Elektro the Moto-Man and his dog Spark 🤖

(Trying to sneak in some touring before the conference - sadly the flight delay caused me to miss the walking tour but Mr Roger’s made up for it!)

We're very proud of our team (Canden, Colin, Ingeborg, Sonia, and Trevor) who are helping those who can't come to DC.

Thanks to the for covering this project. We hope to continue helping out those we can until November when the temporary monument leaves DC (we've already told the USAA that their idea to make it a smaller traveling exhibit is a great idea!)

If you want to help us, book one of our National Mall tours, every time we are down on the Mall, we're able to grab a few photos for folks.

You know all those 8th graders in town in the spring? They’re with us (I promise we tell them to walk/stand on the right!) 🤷🏽‍♀️

We’re headed to Student & Youth Travel Association annual conference this weekend to share more about our tours! Student groups are some of the most fun to lead - from the shrieks on our ghost tours to the surprise on our Lincoln Assassination tours to the sense of awe on our memorials and moonlight tours.

There’s also apparently a puppy cafe?! 🐶 So we’ll be distracted this weekend.

DC is a lot of things. mostly, it's kinda chic to see it on foot.

Which stop are we starting at? the Mall, Georgetown, or Ford's?

A hazy day in DC town 😷

With the smoke from the Canadian wildfires visiting town today; most of our morning walking tours were cancelled but one brave guide ventured down to the National Mall.

The best Monday morning email is a message from a guest on our 👻 Ghost tour sharing some photos of one of the most haunted buildings in Georgetown!

What do you see? 👀

Well the U.S. Soccer MNT may be out; but we’re proud of them and proud of DC’s connection to the song that brought us together as the world travelled our country roads!

Country Roads was written and first sung in Georgetown Business Improvement District about a road in City of Gaithersburg - a road that just happens to be on the way to the outlet mall so we drove the length of Clopper Road, blasting the song out the window.

We ran into General George Washington in Georgetown today!

Despite the rumours and the number of places named for him; Georgetown is NOT named after George Washington.

This colonial port city was founded in 1749; when he was 17 years old. It was likely named for King George II (again, 1749 and we were still okay with the British crown and naming things for him) or the two men whose land was used to creat the to***co inspection port - George Gordon and George Beall.

But what a treat to meet the general on the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence while walking down Thomas Jefferson Street!
